    Maybe something along the lines of cycling for beginners or somewhere to have a pedal free from cars/traffic?

    Buuming clubs seem to be massively popular around the town recently. Especially secret ones.

    That is part of the project that starts March / April (Outdoor activities for social prescribing). There is already an allotment but I think we may need to expand it.

    Hi,

    I’m a new father. My son is 9 month - he attends lots of baby groups with his mum. However, sometimes when she’s unavailable I have took him and noticed the groups are all woman, which made me uncomfortable at times.
    Perhaps a baby sensory groups that’s aimed at fathers? Could make it themed weekly?
    Might be something well received. Good luck

    A sensory room which doubles up as a baby/ toddler area is something we have considered. It will need a big chunk of funding so won’t happen overnight, but I know where to go for the funding so fingers crossed.
    Totally understand the bit about Dads feeling uncomfortable - will make sure it’s welcoming to all.
